ลิ้ง sboSERGIO RAMOS has warned his Real Madrid team-mates that their Champions League final opponents Liverpool are more than just their front three. The Reds’ attacking triumvirate of Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino has attracted headlines throughout the season having plundered a combined 90 goals in all competitions.

The trio have scored 29 of Liverpool’s 46 in Europe this season, including the qualifying stage, and have been billed as the difference-makers if Jurgen Klopp’s side are to end Real’s continental dominate tonight (7.45pm). The two European heavyweights go head-to-head in Kiev with Liverpool looking to deny the Spanish giants a third successive triumph in the competition as they seek to take their overall total to 13 titles.

Five-time champions Liverpool also have pedigree in this tournament but before this season they had not reached the knock-out phase since 2008-09, with Real’s recent experience qualifying them as the favourites in Ukraine. Yet captain Ramos has declared that Liverpool cannot afford to show any complacency as he dismissed suggestions that Real Madrid have been lucky to make this year’s final. ลิ้ง sbo

"In other years we've come up against opponents that supposedly weren't as strong and they posed us more problems that the teams we've faced this year,” the centre-back said. “That said, we've knocked out each of the big teams from all of the leagues. We accounted for PSG, Juventus, Bayern Munich. “It has been a tough journey and we now have to complete the job against an excellent Liverpool side that is more than just three players. “They're a side that know how to dig in, never give up and they've got a great coach who will be giving his all. It's a unique occasion for all football fans.

"We don't pay any attention to the criticism and praise that you receive at certain times. “Any sort of distraction is never good. This team has always had a really clear mind. "The key to this team is our hunger and ambition.There's nothing that goes on off the field that can influence us. “We're all important, regardless of our individual roles. Retaining that clarity of ideas, hunger, ambition, excitement and motivation to continue lifting silverware has been key.” ลิ้ง sbo
